SUMMARY:Exhibition: Atomics to Medieval Knights
DESCRIPTION:Thanks to the positive visitors’ feedback and high attendance\, we are happy to let you know that the exhibition “Atomics to Medieval Knights – a history of Fitzharris Manor Estate” has been extended until Sunday 6th April.  \nThis tells the story of Fitzharris Manor\, from its beginning after the Norman Conquest\, when it was granted to a knight called Owen or Oin. One of his descendants was called Fitzharry\, whose name attached itself to the Manor and is still reflected in the modern housing estate. We track the history of the Manor through time\, and how the Manor House changed with a succession of owners. The exhibition then focusses on the coming of the AERE research establishment at Harwell\, which brought an influx of new people to the town – the “Atomics”. In order to provide housing for them\, a new estate was built on the site of Fitzharris Manor – the Fitzharris Estate. The exhibition looks at the construction\, the design\, and the people’s life on the estate and how the coming of the Atomics changed the town. It also lifts the lid on what went on at Harwell\, and some events which shaped world history but took place right on our doorstep. Much of the research into the history of the estate has been done by Mike Evans of the Fitzharris Estate Residents Association\, whose support makes the exhibition possible.

SUMMARY:Abingdon Operatic Society presents 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory'
DESCRIPTION:In April 2025\, Abingdon Operatic Society will be debuting ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’ at the Amey Theatre in Abingdon.  This promises to be a magical week for cast\, crew and audience\, so make sure you grab your golden ticket! \n‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’ is a musical based on the 1964 children’s novel of the same name by Roald Dahl\, with book by David Greig\, music by Marc Shaiman and lyrics by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman.  As most of us know\, it tells the story of Charlie Bucket and his desperate search for the golden ticket that will enable him to enter the secretive Chocolate Factory of Mr Willy Wonka. \nThe show originally opened at the Theatre Royal\, Drury Lane in June 2013 and almost immediately broke the West End’s record for ticket sales – a record it still holds.  It ran until 2017\, when a reworked production moved to Broadway.  It is this Broadway production that was licensed for international touring productions and\, later\, amateur theatre. \nToday\, there are professional tours across the US\, UK and Australia\, but at AOS we have been lucky enough to fit our production between tours\, which allows us to create a brand new production for Abingdon! \nPerformances are from Tuesday 8th – Saturday 12th April at 7.30pm\, with an additional 2.30pm Saturday matinee\, at the Amey Theatre\, Abingdon\, OX14 1DE. \nTickets can be purchased at www.ticketsource.co.uk/abingdonoperatic

SUMMARY:Abingdon Operatic Society presents 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory'
DESCRIPTION:In April 2025\, Abingdon Operatic Society will be debuting ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’ at the Amey Theatre in Abingdon.  This promises to be a magical week for cast\, crew and audience\, so make sure you grab your golden ticket! \n‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’ is a musical based on the 1964 children’s novel of the same name by Roald Dahl\, with book by David Greig\, music by Marc Shaiman and lyrics by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman.  As most of us know\, it tells the story of Charlie Bucket and his desperate search for the golden ticket that will enable him to enter the secretive Chocolate Factory of Mr Willy Wonka. \nThe show originally opened at the Theatre Royal\, Drury Lane in June 2013 and almost immediately broke the West End’s record for ticket sales – a record it still holds.  It ran until 2017\, when a reworked production moved to Broadway.  It is this Broadway production that was licensed for international touring productions and\, later\, amateur theatre. \nToday\, there are professional tours across the US\, UK and Australia\, but at AOS we have been lucky enough to fit our production between tours\, which allows us to create a brand new production for Abingdon! \nPerformances are from Tuesday 8th – Saturday 12th April at 7.30pm\, with an additional 2.30pm Saturday matinee\, at the Amey Theatre\, Abingdon\, OX14 1DE. \nTickets can be purchased at www.ticketsource.co.uk/abingdonoperatic
